hey guys i was taking GLWBear's advice and checking my rear bearing carrier.. well....
thanks for the warning Bear! .. i took a look at mine this eve and it was all loose! the whole setup was about to fall apart and i never even noticed.. Anyway how the hell do you get the hub with the disc brake connected to it over the little lip in the axle... i got it to slide out about 4" to see all of the splines.. but then it hits that little lip where the clips ride and will go no further.. how do you get it over that? thanks guys..
this is the same post that i replied to on GLWBears thread.. sorry for the double paste but i need an answer quick!


Also i have no dealers around me in TX, who on the Internet should i order new seals from? i was thinking like Parker Yamaha..
thanks guys
Rob.

 

Its snug,, give it a tug...

As long as you have evertying between that and the end of the axle it just needs a little help getting off,
I cleaned mine and then I just was able to yank it off l

 

Mudstud is correct. You have to get it just right to slide over the lip. Here's some useful info:

thanks guys, thanks Steve... was good to see ya again, sorry we did not get to ride more.. there were too many people trying to ride at once.. was a great weekend though and i got to ride the Yfz450, and jump it, it was great... got to get me one of those someday.. well it was fun, next time well ride more.. thanks for the info.... it must be too dirty.. ive cleaned alot of sand out of it, ill keep cleaning and hopefully can get if off.. Does anyone know the exact size of the hub bolt, the big one with the cotter pin.. was using a cresent wrench to get it off, but i want to buy a socket to torque it back on when done?
thanks.
Rob.

 

can you e-mail me that page with the axle removal info on it please???? gearsmoker@yahoo.com thanks!!!!

 

Sorry, I can't just email you that page. It's actually several pages with embedded links on the server.




ds axle info..

 

Check inside the rotor carrier for an o-ring...I think that's what's keeping it from just sliding off.
